I don’t mind the second one
The first movie to hit $1 billion in the United States being a flagship hero of NY is so fitting. Like it was written in a plot line
Mamdani is the Mayor too
Coincidence? I think not...
Just realizing again how Captain marvel really did a billi lmao
peak marvel hype was doing crazy s***
superhero movies were so popular aquaman got a billy by proxy
I honestly think that awful long running Supergirl CW damaged the characters rep forever
And they still won’t make more real imax theaters or projectors
Watched it today, was awesome, glad its more peter parker than Spiderman and more NY based

I can’t stand that show but Melissa Benoist is kinda beloved as Supergirl tbh
Sony is mandated to generate Spider-Man films every few years or else the "use it or lose it" clause reverts rights back to Marvel. They rely on Spider-Man as their huge IP, whereas WB has other IP they dedicate resources to. They can't lose this and can't afford to f*** it up which also is why they correct course so well (ex. quick pivot from ASM2 to MCU; stopping the villain films)
When Raimi couldn't do SM4 by 2011 we had ASM1 by 2012. Not because of the love of the game its cus they contractually had to.
You can (and should) still properly critique WB here but this is context that explains why we literally have to get Spidey films. There's also an underlying argument for why their licensing arrangement has been more successful than anyone else merely owning IP. No property is as consistent the last 24 years
this is discounting the duds of the kraven, morbious, but yea
The big cultural moment movies of the year: Obsession, Backrooms, Spiderman, Odyssey (and Michael to an extent)
Are all about lonely, lost, haunted, isolated men
